    Summary

    We're walkin' a tightrope / Never sure, will you catch me if I should fall?

    Bruce couldn't bring himself to touch Robin, to cross that line, despite the boy's obvious feelings for him. Trying to protect him, Bruce pushes Dick away. Slade is there, silently offering what Bruce refused to give. Dick, desperate for security in the wake of this heartbreak, lets himself be greedy and take it.

    Bruce can do nothing but watch from afar and burn with envy. (for now...)

    Summary

    Christmas was the time of the year for hope. It was also the time of a rise in minor crime. Bruce was working hard to try to keep the hope in the cold Gotham streets, both as Batman and Bruce Wayne.
    He never expected a charity event as Bruce Wayne to lead him down the quietest halls in a hospital, where the most noise was the shuffle of nurses’ feet and the beeping of hospital machinery.
    He never expected a charity event to give him someone he thought long lost.

    Summary

    “Bruce, you’re self-destructing,” Tim cut in, and the room went silent for a tense moment as he absorbed the assertion. The pair of them eyed him down with their respective devices – a laptop and a duster – in hand, as he considered leaving now or admitting it all like his lips so direly wanted to do.

    But Bruce’s mind told him no.

    Or, Bruce hurts his family so he can drown himself in Gotham Harbor.

    Summary

    Bruce breaths in, slowly, and forces himself to speak past the pain, “Did you need something?”

    Shit. Shit, shit, shit. He definitely re-tore his stitches earlier, if the tell-tale feeling of blood seeping through bandages at his side was anything to go off of.

    “Yeah, actually,” Tim says, voice hesitant, “I was— uh, I was wondering if we could talk about something?’

     

    or

     

    Bruce attempts to hide an injury. The timing is awful.

    Summary

    His body stilled. The two flimsy wrist bands felt heavy in Damian's calloused hands. Everyone was just as entranced in horror over the two tiny little things in the youngest hands.

    Two wristbands with the name Bruce Wayne, belonging to Arkham Asylum.

    Or,

    Two times Bruce Wayne went to Arkham Asylum, and the time his kids found out.

    Summary

    Batman: Re-imagined

    In this world, Bruce Wayne managed to successfully heal himself through therapy and consequently did not take on the mantle of being Gotham's vigilante. Despite of this, he still managed to adapt four sons: Richard Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, and Damian Wayne--all unbeknownst to him are part of Gotham's most prominent heroes: The Gotham Knights.

    Why did Dick, Jason, Tim and Damian chose to become vigilante heroes? And how will the 'lack of Batman' change Gotham's villains? Will Bruce ever find out about the nightly activities of his sons? Will the Wayne family survive the chaos that will come to Gotham?

    Bruce never left.
    He was beneath their feet the whole time.

    But when Clark insists on taking the lead in his own city, a misstep in judgement leaves Bruce badly injured, forcing Superman to reckon with the cost of his pride, and the weight of Batman’s hard-earned trust.

    Summary

    "He sighs because he knows what this will devolve into. He knows his monster will turn him into mere shadow, it driving his thoughts and re-shaping his psychology. Standing in front of the fridge wondering if he was strong enough to restrain it, he answers his question quickly by opening the fridge, a small gesture that turns big very quickly, Bruce not having a mind to choose what to eat– he will eat everything."
    ////////
    Bruce Wayne has struggled with binge eating for years. He'll deal with it forever, he surmises.
